Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-1450:
-----------------------------------------

The keylength can't go to 256 bit in 1.8. Set the default to 128 would bring 
the problem that most users will get an error message that strong encryption 
isn't installed.

[~msahyoun] could you change the text in the command line web page "The number 
of bits for the encryption key." to "The number of bits for the encryption key, 
40 or 128; for 128 bits [Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength 
Jurisdiction Policy 
Files|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce-7-download-432124.html]
 must be installed.
